Session 3: Reding levels

According to Bloom's Taxonomy, there are six different levels in the learning process. The three first levels are categorized like LOTS (Low Order Thinking Skills) because in these levels only the memory and the concepts are applying. For their part, the  other three levels are categorized like HOTS (High Order Thinking Skills) because in these levels students reach the critical thinking and they can to create their own conclusions and knowledge.

The are three levels of reading that should be introduced in each reading comprehension task. The literal  consist in find the information directly in the text. The inferential is reading between the lines, in this one, readers interpret what is in the text. Finally, the critical is reading beyond the lines, in this case, readers connect the text with their own experiences.

Reflective point

I consider it very appropriate to scale in the learning process from LOTS to HOTS. The LOTS exercise promote students have clearly the theoretical aspects in a specific topic, while in the HOTS exercises, students can use the theory in real scenarios where the students can solve problems by themselves
